Healing Cuts on Clitoris

My problem really isn't a disease.  I cut my clitoris in 3 places while shaving a week ago.  They have yet to heal and are very sore to the touch.  My underwear keeps it irritated and it's not in the best place to heal.  It seems even walking and sitting irritates it.  I've put neosporin with pain relief on it and powder, trying to keep it dry.  Because I think the moisture is keeping it from healing all the way.  It's not in a very good place for me to look at it, so I got my husband to look and he said that it was 3 cuts and they have new (white) skin over the cuts, but it's just too moist.  Any suggestions???  I'm desperate!!!

Im in the same situation...only it wasnt from a razor...lets just say the foreplay got a lil ruff and I ended up gettin a scrape on the hood...it hurts like hell even when I walk or sit, & its been like this for the past week. The scraped skin is white and reddish & it formed a bump kinda like a hard pimple. It burns 4 no reason or wen im in the bathroom. Anyways...idk wat this is & its bothersome...any suggestions as 2 wat happened?

I would suggest just leaving it alone for awhile.  Your body will heal itself - The neosporin and power are probably a bad idea... the neosporin because it could get inside you and the powder because, well, that are is just supposed to be moist.

NEVER PUT VAGASIL to try to stop the itching. it burns like CRAZY i didn't know i had a cut there but after this intense burning experience i checked and discovered a cut. So for anyone who thinks that might stop the itching of a cut DO NOT TRY IT!!!!!!

Considering that Vagasil is an anti-fungal cream and not intended for use on minor cuts or burns...that's a hard lesson learned. Always and I mean ALWAYS, read the packaging and learn of it's intended purpose. Hope this helps. Have a wonderful day!

I did something dumb... I was shaving with one of those INTUITION razors that aren't very precise, but they're smooth... maybe too smooth... they're not precise 'cause of the cream, much like a bar of soap, made to encircle the blade. My fingers slipped and I cut myself right on the clitoris and a piece of the protective 'hood.' I removed a fair piece of my clitoris. @#$%!$
I didn't actually notice that I was cut at the time. I remember my fingers slipping though. I noticed when my boyfriend just began to go down on me about an hour later. I blamed his facial hair, Haha!... 'til I asked him to check me. It hurt really bad...
The next day, there's no pain at all. Y'know, I think that's because I caused some nerve damage.
I know, it's dumb... but as an experienced shaver, who's done this sort of thing for years, and with the Intuition razor more than twenty times, probably... I made an honest slippery mistake. Has anyone else done this and had the same nearly-numb result? I'm pretty worried. Honestly, it looks like tissue has grown back just fine... no evidence of cuts that I can see, but I'm either just nervous, or I really don't have the ability to feel anything. I tested my ability to orgasm from stimulation which probably should hurt and I found that it was a lot of internal muscular work, was quite tiring, required vigorous stimulation and it took a pretty long time. Ugh.

Well trying to masturbate with the anxiety that something is wrong doesn't help. If you removed a fair piece of your clitoris and it has healed and by healed, not infected- you might be fine and the problem is just your own thinking. However, it won't hurt to get a professional opinion. Make an appointment and see a OBGYN. Tell them what you did. Trust me they've heard it all and remember, be honest. If you are having trouble masterbating, they can probably give you some solid advice. :) Hope this helps. Have a great day!
